Proton R3 tour 2008

This is my second visit (here was the first - new window). Thanks to Tim who organised the trip. And thanks to Tengku Djan who spent time talking to all of us, explaining everything from the car evolution to motorsports to production to tyre tips. The research facility cum production site (esp. prototype) is a restricted area. No photography (only viewing) is allowed in the prototype room.

For more info on Tengku Djan, please visit his Tandem Assassin website (new window). He has an entry in Wikipedia (new window).

Tim leads the convoy. We stopped halfway at Kesas highway to make sure no one is missed out. More than 10 cars joined today's visit.
